Lyrics
The city with its dark embrace
Shows its twisted damaged face
And reflects the labyrinth of my mind
Here amongst these winding streets
Invisible, I move with ease
No one sees the monster walking by
The crowds always used to despise me
How is it they now idolize me?
They're saying the grinning man's opened their eyes
What is it they're seeing beneath this disguise?
What was it I left behind
On that black and bitter night?
It's hiding in the labyrinth of my mind
Everywhere I look I see
The darkness eating into me
Why is it that the truth's so hard to find?
What if this freak that they're crowding to see
What if that monster could also change me?
And even if I knew what had caused all this pain
Why in the hell would I want to feel it again?
Dea says it's truth you need
She says the truth can set you free
But open up the darkness of my mind
But maybe this is where I belong
Confusion is a kind of home
And pain the only comfort I can find
Stories are her way of seeing
But she's not the one who needs freeing
She loves the tale of what happened to me
But how can she love what she can't even see?
The city streets are sharp and new [?]
What I feel now is just as true
As anything that's hidden in my mind
This letter brings a pulse of life
I recognize what she describes
Could it be true that true love isn't blind?
The search for the past hasn't healed me
But somehow this letter reveals me
Could this erase the pain of my shame and disgrace?
Because she sees the beauty in my broken face
